Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."Rubrik has led to improvement by reducing the amount of failed backups, leading to a reduced workload in IT operations."
"In the event of any issues or questions, the support is top-notch. We rarely need to use support, but when they are needed, they are always quick to respond and very knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature is the archive to cloud location and the automation around the PowerShell script. There are also reports and dashboards."
"Cut backup remediation to nearly nothing."
"I would rate the solution's web interface at eight out of ten. It's just fantastic and intuitive. It's so easy to use. I've never done any formal training on Rubrik, but I was able to quickly come to grips with its capabilities."
"Automation functions, image based backup, and the ability to instantly recover anything from files to databases."
"The product's most valuable feature is the immutability of a backup."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company."
"The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days."
"The user interface is good."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"It is scalable."
"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
"It needs more storage array integration options and an easier restore for files that download using a browser."
"Pricing is something that needs to be considered for improvement."
"I would like to have a built-in index searching ability of files/system files within the Rubrik interface to determine if a file or item exists, rather than just recovering it, and then doing a search for the file afterwards."
"Could be improved from an analytics point of view."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"In terms of what could be improved with Rubrik, we need to improve the backup for remote sites. The competitors are stronger in terms of their remote office back up. Rubrik needs to improve to be stronger for backup. This is the main thing."
"The dashboard and user interface could be improved to make them more user-friendly."
"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
"More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"It could use deduplication features."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra."
"There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible."
